RE: Human values: Right conduct (Love in action), (ecotrain)
I think right conduct is more an absolute than a relative term, not depending on social, cultural or Zeitgeist norms.
In the Buddhist sense right conduct is that action which reduces suffering and leads to enlightenment.
When the Nazis came to take away the Jews in her area, my grandmother was out in the street, loudly protesting against it, saying "This is not right!"
Now for the Nazis this was not right conduct and they wanted to arrest her also. Luckily for her, one of the SA knew her and told the others to let her go.
Wow, so many war stories I´m telling today. Wonder why.
Maybe because of those Nazis in Charlotteville.
Crazy! It´s 2017 and those guys go full 1933!
But of course we have them in Germany too.
They just don´t seem to die out, which would be right conduct, because it would reduce suffering.
Indeed right conduct is the conduct that leads to more love and less suffering, well put. Thanks
I think I remember associating right conduct with propriety and balance and refraining from causing harm. I like how @eco-Alex wrote about "being in tune with the one truth and light". On such a path, othing is wasted or overconsumed.
The sub values that caught my attention were time management and persistence. We shall see how I fair this week. Thank you for this thought provoking post @clara-andriessen
Sorry it has taken me so long to join this valuable conversation.
